[Surgical experience of complex fractures of the middle third of the facial skeleton treated without an intermaxillary block].
Having illustrated the functional and anatomical aspects of the upper jaw and the importance of the anterior and posterior pillars as load-bearing structures for the middle third of face, the paper reports a series of fractures of the upper jaw treated with plaque osteosynthesis without an intermaxillary block. The functional and esthetic advantages are underlined.
